Fox had high expectations for its new series “Empire,” which premiered Wednesday night to nearly 10 million viewers.

“The entire Fox team supercharged this show on some crazy level, as far as making it sexy,” Hollywood heavyweight Brian Grazer, an “Empire” producer, told me Thursday. “They actualized the hype in a world where it’s so hard to make anything distinctive.”
